Keynote
Preparing delicious, international cuisine using local and organic foods. Recipes are in line with the diet recommended by the "father of holistic medicine," Edgar Cayce. A local, organic diet is supportive of the environment.
Book Description
Bobbie Williamson combines her years of international cuisine preparation with advice from the Edgar Cayce readings to help you create healthful, delicious meals that you, your family, and your body will love. Bobbie's years of living abroad, in places as diverse as Switzerland and the Middle East, taught her the importance of a diet rich in locally bought, organic, and seasonal foods that are naturally healthy.
In her warm and engaging style, she shares simple yet priceless advice on how to stock your pantry, essential ingredients for any kitchen, proper food combinations, and yummy recipes like soulful soups, delightful appetizers, easy and exotic entrées, and show-stopping desserts.
Author Bio
Having lived in six countries on three continents, Bobbie Williamson's global travels afforded her the special opportunity to absorb not only the distinct qualities of foreign cultures, but also to learn a wide variety of culinary techniques. Her unique cooking style incorporates both Edgar Cayce's healthy philosophy regarding food combinations along with Bobbie's own favorite Mediterranean, Asian, and Middle Eastern cuisines.
Selling Points
The time is right for both an organic and local diet; people are concerned about their carbon footprint and rising health care costs. We and the author have produced and created a promotional DVD of three cooking shows that we are working to place on PBS. The author is well-known for her natural cooking and catering in the Hampton Roads area and with the A.R.E. audience.
